Voices of New Orleans

“ In books and official reports, the tragedy of Katrina was blamed on politicians, poverty and poor engineering, as it should have been. But there was another conversation that should have happened — not about blame, but about understanding. What did regular people do before, during and after the storm? Why? And what could they have done better?” — Amanda Ripley in her book, The Unthinkable

Music Friday: Bonerama blasts those trombones

February 15, 2007

For your Friday listening pleasure, some New Orleans Brass Funk Rock courtesy of the fabulous Bonerama. Halfway through Craig sings and you get to hear some great holler back vocals with the band. It stops pretty abruptly but you get a taste of why you need to buy their CDs!

Behind the cut ... turn up the volume and dance with Bonerama!

About this blog

After Katrina and its horrible aftermath, Chin Music Press felt compelled to shine its wobbly flashlight on New Orleans. This effort resulted in our second book, Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans? Along the way, we met a community of passionate, eloquent writers who care deeply about what happens to the Big Easy. This blog became a natural extension of the book. It's our way of adding voices to the unfolding story of New Orleans.
